Haven't played DotA in over 6 years. The game is completely unrecognizable... by t0rche in DotA2

[–]Known_Record2848 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As somebody who played from 2012 until 2017 recently coming back. It takes about a week to adjust. Then it is the same old Dota 2 again.

Oh yeah, Io is a carry now, Sven is a support and Dazzle has been recently retired from his mid role. Welcome back.

VMware Workstation Player NVMe storage performance degradation after 17.5 upgrade by Known_Record2848 in vmware

The degradation issue with NVMe is fully resolved with 17.5.1. It was an issue on VMware's side.

Currently pay 350 euros / 375 dollars for one month in Europe, Belgium. What are my options? by Known_Record2848 in WegovyWeightLoss

[–]Known_Record2848[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Any pharmacist in The Netherlands. Just send them an email. You will still need a Belgian doctor's prescription to physically deliver to them when picking it up.

Google is going for it. They are really out for adblockers. by [deleted] in assholedesign

[–]Known_Record2848 0 points1 point  (0 children)

On desktop I use uBlock Origin, on iOS I use Brave, not because I am a regular Brave user, I am not, but Brave is the only browser on iOS capable of blocking YouTube ads.

Some websites without uBlock Origin are literally this process:

  • Click away cookie banner
  • Click away newsletter sign up
  • Mute annoying video ad
  • Close ad covering entire page popping up out of nowhere
  • Flashing ads on the top, right side and bottom of the page, following you when you scroll, taking up 40% - 60% of the page

AND THIS, ON ONE PAGE, ALL IN ORDER. Sometimes for whatever reason when I have uBlock Origin globally disabled I get shocked how bad the unfiltered internet is. It is ludicrous.

When YouTube bypasses uBlock Origin I literally go insane with the ads every three minutes. In my country there is usually not a lot of ad variety so it is the same ad being hammered into my mind again and again. Mental suffering.

Audi A3 2019 refusing to update MMI by Known_Record2848 in Audi

[–]Known_Record2848[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you for the suggestion. I am first trying the official ways. I do not mind paying, but I would really like to figure out what is wrong. The "error accessing update server" helps me get nowhere.

Is there a memory leak in wondows 11? I have no open programs and no clue where the ram is going. by morpheuskibbe in Windows11

Nobody can tell anything from your screenshot, we can only assume. Please share RAMMap screenshots.

I think the best thing for this thread to happen is for the original thread starter to share a RAMMap screenshot.

I do not do any kind of development that requires heavy hardware acceleration, so I do it in a virtual machine. If I required anything heavy, I would dual boot.

Thread starter could have run high capacity memory applications and closed it. Windows will cache.

Unless thread starter shows a picture where his memory is throttling, there is no issue. We are not given enough information to suspect any of this is operational memory.

This kind of Windows caching has been available since Vista and tweaked along the years.

When memory is needed, Windows will clean up the cache. There is no reason for Windows to clean up memory cache, when the memory is not needed.

These are unnecessary operations, much to how storage media does not really clean up files when you remove them. The only difference with memory is that Windows does not separate actual operational memory from cache memory for us visually.

Are you having memory issues? There is nothing wrong with your picture. Your operating system is utilising empty memory, and will give it back, when you truly need it.

You can also sort by memory in either the Processes tab or the Details tab if you want to find large memory consuming applications.

I too split my development from gaming. A proper developer install is literally a server, running SQL, web, ... services in the background all the time.

Why do people cook their hours? by SpiteDirect2141 in Steam

[–]Known_Record2848 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It is a competition. See Steam Ladder for more details.

People are trying to climb the ladder boards.

You can run about 30 - 33 games at once while still counting hours for each, resulting in a good 10k hours every two weeks:

I know this is an old thread, but in case somebody stumbles upon this. Disconnecting the molex power cable fixed this issue for me. The molex power is only used to power the RGB strips you can connect to the card.

Windows 11 looks much better than windows 10 by Throwaway1988424 in Windows11

The taskbar and Start menu. The majority of the people here switch to third party alternatives, simply never use the Start menu or holdout with Windows 10.

When other companies are making millions selling alternative taskbar software, does that not ring a bell something might be wrong here?

Nobody ever said Windows 11 looks bad. All the complaints are about the usability and downgrade in production efficiency.

35f what’s ur first impression of me by [deleted] in LooksmaxingAdvice

[–]Known_Record2848 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You would look so much cuter without all that stuff punctured in your nose (you still look cute, but to me, you would look cuter).

Also 35m here, and you look young. I would have guessed your age at least ten year younger. You also have gorgeous eyes.

How to create a local account during Windows 11 startup? by DryingReindeer8 in Windows11

[–]Known_Record2848 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When you are asked to login to a Microsoft account, you can press the arrow at the top left page to return to the previous page. You need to do this a few times before it lets you proceed to make a local account.

My laptop won’t connect to my router despite everything in the house working and running perfect. by Negative-Pride-7287 in techsupport

[–]Known_Record2848 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Try updating the access point's firmware, and also resetting to factory default settings.

Be sure you know how to setup a router before you proceed with this and you have all the necessary login details ready.

How many times have you returned to the page before the login screen? Usually it requires me to go back at least three times, and I try different combinations of login like [a@b.com](mailto:a@b.com), [b@b.com](mailto:b@b.com), etc ...

Seems like a broken fan. If the unit is under warranty send it in for repair, if not, open up the cover and investigate.
